LOL: The days of cultivating immortals in Rune Continent

Chapter 130 Demacia, the war has begun!

Calendar year 987, mid-August.

It has been nearly three months since Rowan and Lux ​​returned to Demacia, and during this time, Rowan has witnessed the changes in Demacia with his own eyes. Although small, they have given Rowan motivation.

Netizens have always felt that Demacia is safe, but overly pedantic.

The overly self-protective policy has made Demacia out of touch with the times, but according to Rowan, it is true that Demacia has a closed-door and pedantic policy, but as long as Jarvan III is around, everything will improve, as long as he is alive.

Therefore, Demacia is currently committed to opening its ports and deepening cooperation with surrounding small countries. The tracks of the Hextech train have been extended to various places, and only the final operation stage remains.

Once fully implemented, the three Hextech trains that will run daily will allow Demacia to completely connect Valoran, reducing freight costs while also promoting relations with neighboring countries.

Not to mention that the ban on magic is also being promoted in secret. This can be seen from the fact that Jarvan III waved his hand a while ago and directly ordered a drastic reduction in the number of people in the magic-hunting team in front of all the nobles.

Jarvan III could no longer hold back. When he attacked the demon hunter, Rowan was also present. No noble dared to step forward.

Because now, the interests of the nobles are all tied to Hextech, and Hextech is in the hands of Jarvan III. To put it bluntly, banning magic and the like are actually related to interests. Therefore, when greater interests emerge, the nobles unanimously stand on the side of Jarvan III.

Once the people who control the country have unified their direction, the direction of the people will also be clear.

The interesting thing is that Lux once complained to Rowan about this matter at the dinner table, saying that her uncle was very unhappy about this matter, and privately spoke ill of His Majesty in the Crownguard Manor, and sought help from her aunt, but the result was that he was slapped hard by Tiana, and then he behaved himself.

In this regard, Rowan can only say that Ms. Tiana is really fierce.
Then, Rowan looked at Lux again. Well, Lux would definitely not be as fierce as Tiana. Lux is a very kind and reasonable person!
In short, the time spent in Demacia was indeed very easy. Rowan didn't need to go to the barracks. He just chatted with Sona Lux every day, and bought some delicious food to bring back to Kaisa. Time passed like this day by day.

Today, Rowan was going to find Sona and watch a play together as usual. However, as soon as Rowan arrived at the gate of the Bouvier family's manor, a fully armed knight on horseback found him.

"Lord Luo Wen, His Majesty summons you!"

The middle-aged knight said loudly, holding the reins. Behind him, there was a group of gray horses. He looked at Rowan and said, "Please get on the horse. Time is urgent. The king wants you to get to the throne mountain as soon as possible."

Rowan paused, looked at Bouville Manor, then at the knight, then he walked forward and mounted his horse.

The summons was sudden and urgent. It was the first time that Rowan saw Jarvan III like this.

After a while——

On the throne hill, Rowan handed the horse to the knight, and then walked to the palace accompanied by his servants.

After entering the palace, the first person Rowan saw was Jarvan III sitting on the throne, then a group of blushing ladies of Piltover, and a group of thoughtful Demacia ministers.

"Rowan, come here." Jarvan III stretched out his hand to Rowan.

Rowan walked forward, and before he could ask what Jarvan III wanted from him, a lady from Piltover came up to him.

"Lord Rowan, something bad has happened. Piltover has been attacked!"

"What?" Luo Wen was stunned.

Jarvan III explained, "Just now, they came to me and said that Piltover was attacked by Noxus. Although the people of Piltover tried their best to stop them, they still failed to drive away the Noxians. Now the Noxians have landed at the port, so they asked for help from Demacia and hoped that Demacia could send troops."

After Jarvan III finished speaking, he looked at Rowan and asked, "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, of course we have to go!" Luo Wen said immediately.

Jarvan III nodded and said, "I have prepared the army, and the Hextech train is also being prepared. The soldiers can set off at any time."

"Piltover is Demacia's ally. When an ally suffers, Demacia has no reason not to take action. Therefore, here, Tep, Donis, I order you to go to the military district and gather the troops!"

Among the nobles of Demacia, two men in silver armor came out and half-knelt and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Tiana, select the dragon bird troops and send a troop to Piltover first. At the same time, let our scouts go ahead to gather information!"

Beside Jarvan III, Tiana came out, holding the silver sword, and raised her head and said, "Yes."

"Rowan." Jarvan III looked at Rowan and hesitated.

Then he made a decision.

The future of Demacia belongs to young people like Rowan, Jarvan IV, and Garen. Now, it is obviously the time for Rowan to continue to increase his reputation and honor. Therefore, Jarvan III is preparing to let Rowan go to Piltover as well.

But just as Rowan looked at Jarvan III and was about to speak, a servant rushed in.

"Report!"

"Information came from the highland city of Mithril City that we encountered Freljordians outside the Snow Mountain area!!!"

The soldier rushed in and shouted loudly.

Jarvan III was stunned and shouted, "Calm down and tell us the details!"

The attendant paused, picked up the Hextech Transmitter, and said loudly: "Not long ago, the scouts of Mithril City sent a message to the Crown Guards using the Hextech Transmitter. After the Crown Guards investigated, a group of Freljord people were attacking Urwendale!"

"According to the scouts, this group of Freljord people number about three thousand!"

"Three thousand people?!"

"How is this possible? Aren't the Freljord people we've encountered in the past always in the dozens? At most, there are only a hundred or two hundred. How could they possibly gather three thousand people?"

"They are going to attack us!"

The attendant's words caused chaos at the scene.

Luo Wen's face twitched as well, then he looked at the servant and snatched the transmitter.

Then, Rowan looked down.

There was a row of messages, and just when Luo Wen got the transmitter, another message came in.

[Miyin City has sent soldiers to protect Urwendale! But we don't have enough people, and we urgently need support from Xiongdu! ]

[I have never seen a group of Freljordians in the North. They are well-trained, wearing very little clothes in the cold and icy weather, riding wild boars and ice wolves. They are elite warriors! ]

[We have lost contact with one of our scout teams. It is very likely that they have been captured by the enemy! ]

Wearing very little clothing in the snow.
The mounts are wild boar and ice wolf
Has an army of more than 3,000 people
Damn it!
Luo Wen's eyes widened and he suddenly thought of something.

Isn't this definitely the Winter's Claw? !
There are certainly quite a few Freljordians riding wild boars throughout the North, but if we were to talk about something that meets these three conditions, what else could it be but the Winter's Claw?
Being able to move around in the snow and ice wearing very little clothes, this is the ice bloodline, the Ice Warrior!

With more than three thousand warriors, only two tribes can do it, one is Ashe's Avarosa, and the other is Sejuani's Winter Claw!
The reason why Juvask Riding Wild Boars is famous is not because of how strong these wild boars are, but because the owner of one of the wild boars is too strong!
All signs indicate that the Freljord tribe currently attacking Uwendel is the Winter's Claw!

But the problem arises again!
Why in the year 987, when Azir had not yet been resurrected, Swain had not yet been able to rule the country, and Irelia had not yet officially become the leader of the rebels, did Sejuani's Winter Claw attack Demacia?

This timeline is totally messed up!

In the original timeline, the Freljordians did attack Demacia, and they were indeed the Winter's Claw, but the problem was that there were not that many of them! She only gave one unit to Silas, and asked Silas to lead the attack on Demacia, while the powerful Iceborn warriors easily rushed into Demacia. The powerful warriors of Demacia seemed like a joke in front of the Iceborn.

This is not surprising, because apart from the Fearless Vanguard, the difference between Demacia's elite soldiers and the Icebloods is like the difference between children and adults.

Because the Ice Blood is a treasure bestowed upon the Freljord people by the void creatures that first came to Runeterra. The first watchers who came to Freljord bestowed the Ice Blood upon the Freljord people, giving them powerful strength.

The first place where humans lived in Runeterra was not Valoran or Shurima, but Freljord!
Tracing back to our ancestors, people from all over the world, no matter whether you are from the Shadow Isles, Bilgewater, the Twin Cities, Demacia, Noxus, or the Shurima Empire, the ancestors of your ancestors are all Freljordians!

Therefore, even if one only possesses a trace of ice blood, the upper limit of growth has already surpassed that of mortals. And the Winter Claw has many such warriors!
This is also why Darius, the top warrior among humans, was captured by a small force of Sejuani.

So why?

Without Sylas as a guide, would the Winter Claw come to Demacia?
And there are three thousand people coming!

In Runeterra, this is already a large army. Demacia has fought many wars, but it is rare for it to send out three thousand soldiers at a time.

In contrast, the Freljord, which is sparsely populated and has no ability to perceive news from the outside world, but Sejuani sent out 3,000 people at once.
Is it because of something I did?

But I haven't been to Freljord!

Demacia doesn't have any trade relations with Freljord!

Jarvan III responded very quickly. He said, "Keep it as it is. The troops supporting Piltover must board the Hix train in an hour. Then, Tiana, you will lead the Fearless Vanguard to Irvingdale!"

"Yes!" Tiana said loudly.

"Rowan, you're going to Pirt too," Jarvan III said.

"No, Your Majesty." Rowan interrupted Jarvan III instantly, which was very rude.

But Jarvan III was not angry. Instead, he looked at Rowan and asked curiously, "Don't you have friends in Piltover? Don't you want to go and help your friends in person?"

"I'd like to, your majesty, but I can't do that now," Rowan said, taking a deep breath.

At the same time, the Hextech transmitter sent the latest news.

[Magus gave up his life, and before he died, he sent a message that the tribe attacking us was the Winter Claw, and the leader was a person named Sejuani, with white hair, wearing a helmet with a missing corner, and riding on a huge wild boar. ]

"."

"Your Majesty, the Freljordians are dangerous, very, very dangerous." Rowan felt a headache when he saw the message on the transmitter.

"Danger?" Jarvan III narrowed his eyes. "Silver City and the former Forsbyro also frequently come into contact with the Freljordians. They are no different from the Noxians."

"What's more, the soldiers we sent are Fearless Vanguards," added Jarvan III.

Rowan didn't know how to tell Jarvan III. He just looked at Jarvan III seriously and repeated again: "Your Majesty, they are really dangerous."

"."

Jarvan III was silent.

At the scene, a Demacia noble was about to tease Rowan, but just as he was about to open his mouth, Zhao Xin, who was behind Jarvan III, looked at him sharply with cold eyes.

Zhao Xin, trusts Rowan very much.

Since Rowan, who has surpassed himself, could say it was dangerous, of course Zhao Xin would believe it.

After a long silence, Jarvan III looked at Rowan and said, "So you want to go to Uwendale?"

"Yeah." Luo Wen nodded.

Jayce and Viktor are very important, but right now, Swain has not yet come to power in Noxus. With the current combat power of the Noxians, it is impossible for them to destroy the Twin Cities in a few days, because after Jayce came to power, he forced Heimerdinger to step down. Without Heimerdinger's obstruction, the Twin Cities have also developed a lot of Hextech weapons.

Although there are few warriors in the Twin Cities, the powerful Hextech weapons can help the people of Piltover protect the city, not to mention Janna, who has awakened a lot of power.

Never underestimate the gods!

Although Janna is kind and unwilling to hurt humans, if it comes to the life and death of Zaun and Piltover, Janna will definitely take action. She may not kill the Noxians, but she will definitely drive away all of them with the wind.

Then, when the Demacia soldiers arrive, the two cities will be completely safe.

Therefore, the most that the two cities would suffer would be losses in their interests. If things were ideal enough, no one would even die in this attack!
But what about me?
The situation facing Demacia was different.

Because, Sejuani came in person!
Who else could the image described on the transmitter be other than Piggy?

In fact, it is not true that Rowan is afraid of Sejuani. After all, if Rowan finds that he cannot beat Sejuani after they really meet, there is still Galio. He can let Lux act as a power bank and call upon Galio.

Not to mention that there are many extraordinary beings in Demacia now.

Zhao Xin, several sword masters from the Fearless Vanguard, Tiana, Fiona who is half a step beyond the transcendent level, plus Rowan, Lux, and Kaisa.

With Demacia's current combat power, repelling Sejuani is definitely not a problem.

But the problem is that behind Sejuani, there is a god who can crush Galio!
Thunder Lord, Volibear!
That’s right, behind the two major tribes of Freljord, there are original gods protecting them.

Anivia of Avarosa, Volibear of Winter's Claw.

And Volibear. If Sejuani really summons him, Rowan really doesn't know how Demacia will resist.

Rely on Galio?

The unreliable Galio will definitely be crushed by Volibear.

Because there are gaps between demigods!

Volibear is the top existence among demigods!
Even the Protoss outside the starry sky would never dare to act presumptuously in front of Volibear!
If the bear is really awakened by Sejuani and joins this war, it will be the war of Demacia's destruction!
Seeing that Rowan was extremely serious, Jarvan III also became alert.

"Tiana, act now!"

Tiana didn't hesitate, she stretched out her long legs and walked straight out the door.

Then, Jarvan III looked at Rowan and said, "You will set off for Uwendale now. The nearest scouts will obey your orders!"

"Prioritize the evacuation of the people of Urwendale and ensure the safety of every Demacian!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Luo Wen said loudly.

Jarvan III also stood up. He faced all the nobles, took off his crown and threw it away. The crown rolled on the steps. Jarvan III reached back with his hand.

Mette walked up and handed a sword to Jarvan III.

Looking at the still somewhat careless nobles, Jarvan III raised his sword and shouted angrily: "Everyone, wake up!"

"Rowen's words are exactly what I mean. Now, the enemies of Demacia are coming! These people from Freljord are more dangerous than the Noxians!"

"Demacia, on full alert!"

Jarvan III swung his sword. He was always kind, but at this moment his aura became extremely sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath.

With his gray hair and beard blowing, Jarvan III pointed his sword forward, toward the outside of the throne mountain, and shouted:

"Demacia, the war has begun!"
